Despa

Despa is the younger brother of Desha and serves as a mentor to Bojji.

He is easily excitable at the sight of gold, revealing a very materialistic side.

Despite inheriting only a fraction of his father's supernatural abilities, and being notably weak—so much so that even Kage is exasperated—Despa boasts an extraordinary talent for coaching others.

He has trained many disciples, including Bebin, demonstrating a unique approach to nurturing strength in unexpected places.

When introduced to Bojji, Despa is initially puzzled by Bojji's lack of strength.

However, he cleverly devises strategies to capitalize on Bojji's weaknesses, unlocking his hidden potential.

Materialism is a prominent trait, as Despa cannot hide his excitement around money.

He juxtaposes his brother Desha not only in strength but in appearance—Despa has deep-set, attractive features and is popular among women, causing jealousy in his brother.

Even with minimal inherited power, Despa shines as a tactician and teacher.

He forms quick and expressive facial connections, such as communicating with Desha over vast distances just by placing his hand to his mouth.

Despa maintains a complex relationship with his older brother, Desha, marked by rivalry and mutual respect.

His popularity with women serves as a source of envy for his brother.

His mentorship bonds are strong, as seen with Bebin and Bojji.

Despa is also attached to his loyal horse, White King, who only shows affection towards him.

Upon retiring from castle service, Despa returned his beloved horse, White King, to the kingdom.

Without Despa, White King enjoyed so much freedom that he became plump.

Towards the end of the first story arc, Despa embarks on a journey to find the head of Ōken, who was beheaded by Kingbo.

After Ōken is saved, Despa entrusts the ruling of the country to his younger brother, choosing instead to support from behind the scenes.

He returns to the Underworld and takes on the responsibility of managing affairs in his brother’s stead.

Despa’s coaching and insightful strategies have transformed many seemingly hopeless warriors.

He values wit and skill over brute strength.

Despite his quirks, Despa’s loyalty to his family and students defines much of his journey.

His relationship with White King is heartwarming, showing a gentler side behind his ambitions and humor.
